The clearest difference is rating: SikaCash at 3.6 against VMLocation's 3.1. SikaCash also leads on ads (none vs shown) and monetization model (free vs ad-supported). VMLocation's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, review sentiment, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
